Title: Capitol Hi-Q - New Needledrops / Rips Thread (Will update whenever I find more!)
Post by: Certainly1080 on June 13, 2025, 03:57:28 AM
Hello again, it’s been a while! I’ve got more Hi-Q rips to share today. Most of this selection is new or at least available in lossless for the first time.

All are needledrops this time (‘new’ titles are in bold):

D-31/D-32 - George Hormel
D-33/D-34 - George Hormel
D-35/D-36 - George Hormel
D-37/D-38 - Philip Green. This is replacing a previous 'reconstruction' I made using CAR 402 from CPM Music.
D-45/D-46 - Philip Green
D-51/D-52 - Sten Clift. Includes cue codes and year which were unknown beforehand.
D-53/D-54 - William Loose. Includes cue codes and year which were unknown beforehand.
D-55/D-56 - Reissue, William Loose. Includes cue codes and year which were unknown beforehand.
D-91/D-92 - Reissue, Dan Kirsten
D-125/D-126 - Philip Green
S-3/S-4 - Original. It’s mostly from Spencer Moore, along with some material from William Loose and Bluestone/Cadkin on S-3.
S-9/S-10 - Sam Fox, various artists
S-11/S-12 - Loose/Seely
S-16 - George Hormel. This is inside the S-15 folder.

Everything’s in the same Mega folder as before. - h<>ps://mega.nz/folder/zRsQ2JgB#rgh9Xv8trDMEvVkYlZU0Dg

Should I find any additional Hi-Q releases in the future, I’d like to simplify things and use this thread to post new rips. I’m always on the lookout for more, though I do want to keep my focus on D and S reels!

Enjoy!

Speaking as a longtime fan of The Ren and Stimpy Show, I can't thank you enough for finally providing us with a clean, full copy of "Light Agitato" on D-45/46, which has proven to be one of the most elusive Capitol stock cues used on the show..... up until now. You've made a lot of folks who've been searching for this cue from its use on that show very, very happy.

I also can't express my gratitude enough. Finally having Light Agitato and Weird Eerie and completing the Capitol lineup of Ren and Stimpy cues is a monumental achievement, as is having more of the D series and the elusive S series of Capitol albums.

Well done, and keep up the great work.

I can confidently say I thank you for bringing us S-11. Finally! The stings I've been wondering about for so long, I can finally listen to my heart's content.

More tracks heard from the John Seely Warner Bros. shorts can now be identified.

One of them is "Chase (ZR-57)" by George Hormel.

Thanks for sharing these Certainly1080. I look forward to listening to these. The snippets I’ve heard so far conjour up US programmes from my childhood.

A seller I’ve bought from was kind enough to provide label pictures for S-55/S-56 and S-57/S-58. Both are from 1958 and feature Bluestone/Cadkin compositions. I don’t think they own the actual LPs though, these might be from a catalog book. I asked if they had tracklistings or pics for D-67 thru 88 as well, but no luck there unfortunately. That range seems to be the most elusive out of all the Hi-Q releases. I’d love for it to resurface someday.

Thank you Certainly1080!
I especially enjoy D-125, D-126
Many of Philip Green Dramatic, Mechanical songs remind me of Stephen Sondheim in a way

I appreciate all the work and sharing it with us
Fantastic quality

Your pal,

Doug

Hurrah, and thanks for your kindness.
I've found five cues in the first Ruff and Reddy adventure that weren't publicly identified. I have added them to a blog post.
It's great to hear ZR-57 as part of it was in a Roadrunner cartoon. I didn't know it was by Hormel.
I'm still holding out hope someone will come upon the Raoul Kraushaar cues on L-58.

I have another set of reels to upload.  :) A few more need to be transferred, and then I just need to split everything into separate tracks. Just know that there's not going to be as many rare reels this time, but I've still got a couple!
